Hi all -

First, I realize this is possibly the wrong forum for this question, but  
since I've had no response from my post to gnu.misc.discuss, I thought I'd  
try here:

Can anyone tell me why some files are replaced by "@@MaNgLeD.?" when I use  
gnu tar 1.10 to archive directories?

Here's what "tar -tf /dev/rst0" gave me:

..
menhir/Users/frauendo/Library/GDSSDoc...
menhir/Users/frauendo/Library/GDSSDoc...
@@MaNgLeD.0
@@MaNgLeD.1
@@MaNgLeD.2
@@MaNgLeD.3
menhir/Users/frauendo/Library/GDSSDoc...
menhir/Users/frauendo/Library/GDSSDoc...
..

Many thanks for any help anyone can offer - if I can't solve this, I may  
not be able to use gnu tar as my archiver.

-Thomas
